Stream and Vista for MFSK

[Tom Price]

I am interested in MFSK. I loaded IZ8BLY's stream. It "can not open audio device". I'll bet there is a setting somewhere in Vista (32 bit) to allow access to it. Stream "sees" my soundcard. It shows in preferences. Am I barking up the right tree or is there a newer application or maybe a newer version of stream? I am also interested in Larry Phipps LP-Pan setup.

Thank you,

A lot of amateur developed software (including mine) has never been tested on Vista. I can't speak for Stream, but Fldigi will do MFSK and it should run under Vista (at least, there is a screenshot of it on the developer's site that has obviously been made under Vista.) Why not try that. At least it might shed some extra light on the situation.

and the same goes for DX4Win which cannot be loaded under Vista OS and used
for logging and/or rig control. They say they are working on it.

Yes Fldigi will run under Vista.

You'll want the install package ending with winV.zip for Vista, the
package ending with win.zip will run on 2k through XP.

Various other packages are also available for installation under Linux.

Fldigi is an excellent multi-mode digital package that supports a wide
variety of digital modes, and is in constant active development. Watch
for a new version fairly quickly, that has even more features.

Thanks to you all. I now am barking up the right tree, or at least I am in the right forest. I did go in and edit the settings and edited rig.xml. Thank goodness I have some experience in web pages and HTML it all made sense to me (scary). Thanks Julian the help and directions are greatly appreciated. I am going to try to do this all in my truck with a laptop someday, (not driving of course). I did do some CW mobile several years ago with a HW-7 and a leg key with a stick shift! I think it is like a banjo player.
